Description
Signals are an important interprocess communication (IPC) mechanism of the OS that is currently missing from the I/O chapter. It would be nice to have:
- a brief reading material describing the importance of sending, receiving, and ignoring signals, and the API.
- a task that builds on the previous examples, maybe something along the lines of sending
SIGINT, ignoringSIGHUP, or attempting to handleSIGESGV.
